SEEDFINANCE Corporation / SEAD, Inc.
SEEDFINANCE Corporation, its forerunner the SEAD, Inc.-NGO, and CARE-Philippines, congratulate the
Paglaum Multi-Purpose Cooperative (PMPC) on the occasion of its 15th Annual General Assembly to be held
on May 23, 2007. With this year’s theme of ‘Kalambu-an Sa Kooperatiba, Kadaugan sa Matag Pamilya’, one is
reminded of the common perspective our organizations share with Paglaum MPC – that of a holistic, continuing
development framework that emanates from the empowerment of the individual.
As Paglaum MPC brings the benefits of microfinance and its attendant services to a greater number of the poor
and marginalized in Mindanao, it takes microfinance to a new level of purpose and direction. Targeting the
enterprising poor, Paglaum MPC provides its clientele with a direction, one that makes them aspire to leap out
of the pits of poverty towards economic emancipation. The microfinance client as an individual makes that initial
leap, and as the individual gains more clout and economic control, she takes along her family with her. In a typical
Filipino multi-familial setting, the household is the next step, say in a micro-enterprising housewife who engages
in local handicraft-making and begins to employ her family and household members. As this micro-enterprise
gains even more scale, nothing stops the micro-entrepreneur from employing her neighbors and contributing
to the economic development of an even bigger playing field, the local barangay or municipality. The micro- is
no longer so as she gains small- or even medium-scale status. The vicious cycle of poverty is arrested as micro-
entrepreneurs are set on their tracks of consistent and continuous growth, never coming back to their poverty pits.
Paglaum MPC’s empowerment of its members, and accordingly their families and households, transforms the local
communities where the coop operates. Such begins the reverse process of development trickling from below, from
the individual level, to the barangay, the municipal, the provincial, regional, ultimately the national front. Paglaum
MPC’s perspective is remarkable!
SEEDFINANCE Corporation shares that perspective with Paglaum MPC. Genuine community development -
anchored on the strength of the cooperative’s members and their families and households – brings forth the remedies
to poverty and marginalization. Just as Paglaum MPC envisions its members to grow, SEEDFINANCE takes its
partner-organizations to a new level of development, moving from parochial cooperatives to provincial or regional
microfinance institutions. Microfinance is merely the first step, and the total cooperation of SEEDFINANCE and
its partners working hand in hand with the local government and its instrumentalities, the civil society, the business
community, all these takes microfinance further. It is our privilege to be a partner of Paglaum MPC in this noble,
empowering work, as together as partners we provide financial and business advisory services to the poor in the
countryside.
As Paglaum MPC works from the realization and acceptance of the challenges to improve the lives of its members
and their households and communities where they live, the new challenges of embracing a broader perspective of
economic growth coupled with social goals begin to take shape. We are confident Paglaum MPC will face and live
up to those challenges ably, competently, triumphantly!
Congratulations to Paglaum MPC, its officers and staff, its members, for an empowering work well done!
Mabuhay!

MULTI-PURPOSE COOPERATIVE
As we celebrate another milestone in our coop’s history, let us count our blessings and
take a look at what we have gained in the year 2006. On January 23, 2007, our very
own cooperative together with the provincial government of Misamis Occidental,
was awarded “Most Outstanding Cop-LGU Partnership Award”. This was the highest
recognition that we have received so far. And this was made possible through our
selfless endeavors, through cooperating with one another.
God has been so good to us. We should not forget to thank Him for without Him we
can do nothing in our cooperative. To all the members of the Board of Directors and
the different committees, my sincere and highest commendation for a job well done.

MULTI-PURPOSE COOPERATIVE
It is through your untiring effort and cooperation that we have gone this far. What we
are today is also the result of our humble beginnings back in 1992.
After 15 years, we have opened eight (8) branches across Misamis Occidental,
Zamboanga del Sur, and Zamboanga del Norte Provinces. These are opportunities
for us to help build more empowered families and communities as we provide
our members with access to micro- enterprise. Truly, our theme “Kalambuan sa
Kooperatiba, Kadaugan sa matag Pamilya” reflects our passion to help bring out more
united and more healthy families in Misamis and Zamboanga. We will continue to
reach out and find out how we can help make lives better for our members.
The National Coop LGU Partnership Award we have received recently is a manifestation
of the trust that we have earned not only from our members but also from our partner
agencies in both the government and the private sector. Furthermore, it was a proof
of our lively and harmonious partnership with the provincial government of Misamis
Occidental. Let this be our inspiration to do more for our members and for our
cooperative.

were either farmers or fisherfolks.

Plaridel, Calamba, and Oroquieta branches remained profitable in 2006. However, Tudela, Dipolog, and Pagadian
branches lost in their operations. Pagadian is a very new branch and is expected to earn in 2007. Dipolog and Tudela’s
losses were mainly due to their expansion activities. Both branches are expected to shape up in 2007.
